Ah, to be a pixie. To flit among the trees, coaxing wildflowers up through the forest floor. To offer wanderers directions for coins and beads and pebbles. To run hunters in circles and laugh at their frustration. To dance among toadstools. To sing to the birds. To sit by a stream and braid forget-me-nots into my hair. Ah, to be a pixie.

what if i was the daughter of a minor noble and you were a beautiful peasant girl and we met in the woods while i was escaping etiquette lessons and you were foraging for summer berries to preserve, and although we were shy at first you showed me how to find the ripest, sweetest berries and for the rest of summer and autumn we met in the woods until one day you kissed me with blackberry stained lips as the leaves were gilding overhead and we stayed out that night under the stars. what if.
